Answer 4 questions
Questions businesses ask us
- How is this free?
- We're paid a commission by the provider you choose to sign with. It doesn't change the price you're quoted, and you're under no obligation to switch.
- Which providers do you compare?
- We compare pricing across Worldpay, Dojo, SumUp, Zettle, takepayments, Barclaycard, Elavon and Square.
- Is it safe to upload my statement?
- Uploads are encrypted in transit and stored securely, and we only read the fees and rates. Card numbers never appear in full on merchant statements, and we don't store them.
- Will I be tied into a contract?
- Not by us. If you choose to switch, the contract is between you and the provider; we'll point out its length and exit fees before you sign.
